Norbert yet again

Nice and easy run to Cannock should be back in a few hours. Think again, the weather was atrocious and the traffic on the M40, M42 & M6 just as bad. It took me almost 4 hours to get there, loaded up with 2 pallets of frozen and then back home. Quick stop at a service station for my well-earned 45-minute break and would you believe it the traffic had cleared up. Casual drive home @52mph and back to the depot at around 22:40. When told how much I had brought back the duty chappie couldn't believe it as an Artic just came down and there was room in the trailer for my '2 pallets'. Oh well what could I say, not a lot, obviously someone either didn't plan correctly or couldn't calculate the volume of each lorry.
